Hitori Tori, a.k.a. Canadian Renoise veteran Julian La Brooy has been kicking up a stir lately with his impressive videos of innovative Renoise jamming. See Hitori Tori – Renoise Techniques for some examples. We decided to get in touch for a little interview that should hopefully provide some more insight into his working process.
With the help of Achenar (i.e. Earthen Records), we’ve produced a new video for beginners. Check out the Renoise Homepage to watch it. Me personally? I’m a fan of the thick Scottish accent. There’s even a Japanese (日本語) version on YouTube (click the triangular button in the bottom right corner, and turn ON the captions). Pass it on.
I cooked up a little Renoise tutorial for beginners using the “How to make a jerkin’ beat step-by-step tutorial” at Indamixx.com. Count the amount of times I say “alright” and win a prize.
Speaking of Indamixx, we are running a challenging music contest. We are giving away one of their Netbooks for the best low-power Renoise song. Go to CreateDigitalMusic for the details. You need to send in your music before 15 October.
In the manual you will find instructions on how to access the song-settings page where the groove settings are described. The groove settings feature is great, but only applies to the complete song.

This tutorial covers the 2nd half of the Renoise Workflow video. We will continue where we left off, about 5 minutes in the video.
Neil from the bigbeat collective Shaper shows you how he produces a track in Renoise.
Maybe you have trouble to keep up with the video, because Neil works blazingly fast. I have included a walkthrough to help you out:
Using Renoise to master Reaper and enable the power of playing large audiofiles or videofiles(!!) along the song. Here are the basic instructions how to get this done.
Here is a video tutorial that demonstrates semi-automated beatslicing in Renoise 1.9.
The very first public demo and Release Candidate for registered users of Renoise 1.9 will arrive a little bit later than promised.
In the meantime, check out the Renoise 1.9 sneak peek by everyone’s favorite Renoise monkey, the honorable Mr. Baguette.
We caught Monsieur Baguette on tape for some hands-on Renoise action.
